Good Things

Just imagine a day that is so perfect. Nothing makes you start, stumble or fall even. Just a perfectly 'normal', blissful day. A rarity for some people, a norm in, I hope, lot's of families. That's what I had today. And I damn well took advantage of it and had a wonderful time. So there! I don't give a hoot what anyone thinks. I did it, and had a blast!

I had planned for it to continue and party well into the night, but guess what? "All good things must come to an end". I guess whoever said that knew what they were talking about. Because, thats exactly what happened. Like a splash of cold water on a warm mood, plans changed like pants on fire. So now, l sit here all alone, remembering the wonderful time I had and regretting the what if's and what not's that could have happened. How come nobody mentioned good things are shortlived?

Hope

It literally feels like the layers of burden are falling of me. As I slowly sell away all the things that I had bought as part of my business nearly two years ago, I feel as though I am peeling away at the bindings that have captured my soul. I can actually breathe now. There is a lightness in my heart. There is a skip in my step. And I find myself smiling for no reason at all. I am actually working my way towards happiness. The guilt and frustration I have felt for failing in what I had endevoured to do, is slowly being replaced by strength and a resolve to move forward. I can actually see a light at the end of the tunnel. I can let myself believe that there maybe something else out there for me. I have hope.
